For event organisers in Friday Hill
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide the information the landowner or council asks for from us.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Can I do a taco night myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Not sure whether to do it yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Friday Hill questions
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall with access for the truck or trailer. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Can you bring your truck or trailer to The Highams Park?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we’ll send what they need from us.
What space does the truck need?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we will check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and we plan them in from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect, and we’ll keep their options separate.
How much is food truck hire?
We quote for every hire, depending on numbers, menu, location and timings. For a price, tell us about it on our contact page.
Can we hire the truck for our wedding?
The truck or trailer can serve the wedding breakfast, evening food or both. We fit service around your running order. See our food truck wedding guide.
How is the food prepared?
Food is cooked to order in our food truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Fillings are slow-cooked beforehand and finished on site.

Plated catering needs a kitchen tent, waiting staff and set courses. Our food truck or trailer brings the kitchen and serves from one hatch. A food truck can be a practical alternative to plated catering, as there is no kitchen to hire. Ask us for a quote.
